BERSAGLIERI

The red coat band in the last video was The Royal 22nd Regiment (The Van Doos) of Quebec.

The tune was Viva a la Canadienne! the Regimental march.

I found this interesting.

 

The BERSAGLIERI, as you might could tell from the sound of their name, are Italian.

 

The feathers they wear on their hat, and which they also wear on their helmets, comes from this bird.

This picture shows the range of the capercaillie.

Notice there are none in Italy.

 

Hmmmm.
